BookletCorporate general interestFood control system assessment tool
Introductory booklet
2021In 2019, FAO and WHO jointly developed a comprehensive tool to assist Member states in assessing the effectiveness of national food control systems. The main objective of the tool is to propose a harmonized, objective and consensual basis to analyse the performance of a national food control system. It is intended to be used by countries to identify priority areas of improvement and plan sequential and coordinated activities to reach expected outcomes. The Tool is based on Codex principles and Guidelines for National Food Control Systems, as well as other relevant Codex guidance for food control systems, and its scope is given by the dual objectives quoted in Codex guidance for these systems: protect health of consumers and ensure fair practices in the food trade. This introductory booklet provides a general overview of the FAO/WHO Food Control System Assessment Tool, the assessment process and the benefits of its implementation. It also includes an interactive outline of the tool to facilitate its browsing.
